Cappella di San Rocco, Renaissance chapel in Villongo, Italy

The Cappella di San Rocco is a small chapel on the churchyard of Villongo's parish church of San Filastro, in the area that was once the cemetery. It has two open arches supported by a carved stone column with a base and a Renaissance capital; a low wall runs along the two sides, one being the facade with a small opening protected by an original 16th-century iron gate, the other the right side with a tall original iron grille. Inside, the rectangular plan is covered by a cross vault with painted bands and a gabled roof; the small masonry altar has two small stone columns at its sides.

The chapel was decorated between 1526 and 1528 with frescoes by the painter Romanino, who depicted religious figures including the Madonna with Child and saints. These works were created during a period of intense artistic activity in the Brescia region.

The frescoes show the Madonna with Child flanked by Saints Rocco and Sebastian, plague protectors venerated in the area, with Saint Filastro in papal robes and an almsgiving of Saint Rocco. The chapel stands on the former cemetery ground beside the parish church of San Filastro, and its two Renaissance-era iron grilles are still in place.

The chapel stands on the churchyard of the parish church of San Filastro, in the area that was once the cemetery. The frescoes were detached in 1967 and moved to the nearby baptistery on the left side of the churchyard; they were later displayed in Bergamo in 1998 and are now in the Bondurri property. The chapel itself is small and simple, with two open arches supported by a carved stone column with a Renaissance base and capital.

The chapel's two iron grilles, on the facade and the right side, are original 16th-century work. The frescoes were detached in 1967 because their position prevented conservation, and after being shown in Bergamo's 1998 Lorenzo Lotto exhibition they ended up in the Bondurri property.
